The recitation, much like a melancholic poem, was accompanied with the sound of bagpipes and bells in the background. "The survivors and families of 9/11—your steadfast love and faithfulness has been an inspiration to me and for our entire country," Obama said. The first was observed at 8:46 am (1246 GMT) -- the time when the first hijacked passenger jet hit the North Tower of the World Trade Center. The service also paused to mark the moment when the second plane hit the South Tower.
